Tree Club

TREE Club is Timberline’s premier environmental club, dedicated to creating real, visible change in our school and local community. Over the past few years, our students have had many incredible achievements:

  • School Energy Policy: Club members presented a solar energy proposal to the school board, leading to solar panel installations at Whittier and Hawthorne elementary schools.
  • Wildlife & Habitat Conservation: We adopted and petitioned for a local wolf pack (currently the subject of an upcoming documentary) and revegetating with native plants.
  • Hands-On Sustainability: We launched a school-wide composting system that diverted over 1,000 lbs of waste in its first semester alone, and we partner annually with the Rotary Club for lithium-ion battery recycling.

Thanks to these efforts, TREE Club earned the top tier of the City of Boise’s Curb It Awards!
Beyond local action, we focus on building a strong community. Members enjoy fun team outings—like our recent whitewater rafting trip on the Payette River—and gain access to valuable networking opportunities, guest speakers, and student internships with groups like the Youth Climate Action Council and Life Outdoors.

We are excited to launch another fantastic school year packed with new opportunities for leadership, community connection, and climate action!

Outside Counseling Support Available at Timberline

Timberline High School is partnering with Clear SkiesTherapy Center to provide on-campus counseling for students during the school day.
